Creating the dvd with 9-06 files.

Hi, I have just downloaded the 5 parts for the 9-06 x86 dvd. After applying this command:

cat sol-nv-b46-x86-dvd-iso-a.zip sol-nv-b46-x86-dvd-iso-b.zip sol-nv-b46-x86-dvd-iso-c.zip sol-nv-b46-x86-dvd-iso-d.zip sol-nv-b46-x86-dvd-iso-e.zip > Solaris-9-06-dvd.iso

All appears well, until I go to burn the dvd image (Solaris-9-06-dvd.iso) the file is 2.4 GB, Gnome reports that the file is not a valid disk image. I am using SLED 10 version of Linux and have burnt a few dvd's with just a right click on the file and select the "write to disk" option.

Anyone know what's going on here?

Thanks for any assistance.

Cheers from Peter.

I think you need to unzip each file before you try to concatenate them.That's what seems to be stated in the Download and Burning Instructions page at Sun: http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/download_instruction.xml
